The award winning stand-up comedian and poet, Rob Auton, returns with another heart-felt and offbeat comedy/theatre/spoken word show that explores talking.

After his appearances on the Russell Howard Hour, BBC at the Edinburgh Festival and Channel 4’s Random Acts, Rob now looks to talk to as many people as possible with The Talk Show.

The Talk Show was the second best reviewed comedy show at the Edinburgh Festival 2018.
